Iphone Hard reset

So I found this iphone6s and it was a lost iphone but when i called they said it wasn't theirs so i was wondering if you could reset the phone. If so how much would it cost?

1st. have you tried to change the number by a number they could have accidentally said the wrong number, but if you did want to reset it (although I suggest do trying to find the person attached to it)

Follow the steps:


1. disconnect it

2. turn it off

3. hold the home button and do not let go

4. re-connect it (still not letting go)

5. press ok in iTunes on the pop-up (you can let go of the home button now)

6. click restore iPhone


if this does not work plug the phone into a computer with iTunes and restore from there :)
